Abstract
Disclosed are a recovery for a metaloxidic cathodic active material for a lithium ion secondary battery and a synthesis thereof by the recovery method, wherein the recovery method includes (a) dissolving a cathodic active material from a waste lithium ion secondary battery using sulfuric acid solution containing sulfurous acid gas to generate a solution containing metal ions, (b) injecting sodium hydroxide solution and ammonia solution in the solution containing the metal ions to fabricate an electrode active material precursor, and (c) filtrating the active material precursor, followed by drying and grinding, thus to fabricate a solid-state cathodic active material precursor, and the synthesis method is achieved by mixing the electrode active material precursor fabricated according to the recovery method with lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide, followed by heat treatment, to generate a metaloxidic cathodic active material.
